Artist, broadcaster and writer Charlie Lee-Potter takes contemplative walks with a musician, artist, writer or scientist. The name comes from writer Nan Shepherd’s haunting phrase that ’a mountain has an inside’ - walking isn’t to accumulate miles or conquer peaks but to immerse yourself in landscape. Every episode evokes place with a complex, mixed soundscape.

Episode 2: Night Walking with Anthologist Duncan Minshull
The writer Duncan Minshull has compiled five anthologies about walking, the latest being Where My Feet Fall. In this episode, Duncan and Charlie explore the streets of London at night to see what effect the darkness has on the way they think. There's a long tradition of writers and artists walking at night: Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf, Thomas de Quincey. What was it about the gloom they craved?
